D, a sort of lonely knight-errant, wanders through a far-future post-nuclear Earth that combines the best of pulp genres: western, science fiction, horror and high fantasy with a good dash of Lovecraftian mythos, folklore and occult science.
D is the host for a sentient symbiote, Left Hand, a wise-cracking shrivelled old face residing in his left palm, who can suck in massive amounts of matter through a wind void or vacuum tunnel.
D is granted some respect by those who recognize his birth, known to Left Hand, even though he himself refuses to acknowledge it, and quotes his father's precepts ("Transient guests are we"--it is unknown whether he refered to Nobility or humans) in the first novel.
The game spawned merchandise, a cartoon series and pop songs, and was one of the most heavily cloned videogames of all-time.
The popularity of computer and videogames, as a whole, has been increasing steadily ever since the 1984-1987 drop-off caused by the videogame crash of 1983, and the popularity appears to be continuing to increase.
Videogames are made by developers, who used to do this as individuals or small teams in the 80's.
